TheOrcKing Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 The only thing I remember helping me out with applying stickers well at all let alone straight was having a pair of metal tweezers using them to hold the edge of a sticker and then carefully place it across the desired surface lining up as I go but I haven't done that in years. I used to do model kits besides Lego; now all I do is Lego. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxofcorey Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Or just do a white roof with colored sides. :-) Am I the only one judging Mos Eisley's sticker application btw? Haha literally my worst fear when it comes to LEGO. I just imagine someone admiring a massive collection and being like "Why does that one sticker look stupid? It's not even straight!"

nolanfan34 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Yeah. I cringe watching my 5-year-old put them on, but he always wants to do it, and about every 4th one he nails. :-) I don't sweat the personal collection ones. I have also seen some hilariously applied ones in Craigslist lots I have bought. Sorry for the sidetrack...I concur it is a sweet poly and can't wait to get mine!

TheOrcKing Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I gave up putting on stickers long ago... Now the only stickers applied to bricks that I own are ones that I purchased used.Same here. I pretty much decided if the new stickers end up looking and leaving the same kind of gunky residue the old ones did, I will never apply a single sticker ever again. Plus now I don't need to worry about having a brick with some kind of Space element decal appearing odd when used for some other build.

You would cringe at mine then. I have about as steady hands as a crack addict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabolos80 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I built mine. It's dinky. I am disappoint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkness Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Too bad the tile on the front is a sticker. We can't even get polybags now without stickers. Still can't wait for Sep. 1 to get here. There wasn't a printed tile for the larger model so it would have been very strange to make one for the polybag. They look awesome side by side. I would love to have a range in different colours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scissorino Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Will be getting two (so far anyway) so unless prices are tempting I'll keep both and change the colour scheme on one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mos_Eisley Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Or just do a white roof with colored sides. :-) Am I the only one judging Mos Eisley's sticker application btw? I was wondering if anyone would notice that. . I didn't build the mini camper pictured. An employee at my local store built it for the store display but since they put the sticker on so crooked they decided not to use it. I happened to be there when this was decided so they gave it to me. I just think of it as being old and having a few accidents under its belt.

kvasir Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 they are already on ebay for 18-22$ Someone in the UK just bought 2 from me at the same time for $25 CAD each on bricklink. I wasn't pricing them to sell. Just put a figure I would be happy to unload them at. Guess their prices are above $25 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacs Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I actually found my local Lego Store selling these during the November 23 VIP event for $5! Needless to say, I bought a couple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That never seems to happen at my local Lego store. I do not even know what they do with the extra promos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacs Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Wow. That never seems to happen at my local Lego store. I do not even know what they do with the extra promos. The clerk actually told me they have to get clearance from TLC before they sell any left over promos they have. Apparently, the VW mini-camper was green lighted by corporate for my local store.

studontop Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I managed to buy a few of these at a local lego store and was wondering if they have investment potential. Should I flip them now while they're a bit hot? Or could more money be made, say for example when the big camper retires? Also, what are the chances of polybags such as this to be back in production and become sold by lego? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
